TECHNICAL FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to drawer dividers, and in particular to adivider adapted for partitioning an interior space of a drawer, andbuilding a custom box adherable on counter tops or similar flatsurfaces.

BACKGROUND

Users use different types and sizes of boxes and drawers for storage ofvarious contents such as arts and crafts items, electronic items,stationery and office purpose items, and many other general purposeitems. A very common problem that has existed is to get hold of a rightsize box that a user can use for storage of contents and at the sametime, the box can be held firmly over the surface where the box isplaced. Another problem that has existed in the past with storage of thecontents in the boxes and drawers is a proper separation of such items.

A lot of drawer dividers are proposed in the past for organizing thecontents stored in the boxes or drawers. For example, U.S. Pat. No.3,746,181 to Benoit describes a portable inverted T shaped divider forinstallation in a drawer, or on a shelf, to separate the stored contentsof the shelf or drawer. The divider of Benoit as described includes ahorizontal base member, two vertical supports with each mounted at endof the base near the mid-section of the base, and hollow partitionmembers that slide over vertical supports to separate the contents ofthe shelf in which the divider is mounted.

U.S. Pat. No. 6,871,921 to Ernst describes a divider assembly forinstallation in a tool box or chest drawer to provide separate drawerareas for the storage of various grouped articles. The divider assemblyin rectangular shape for the storage drawer uses perimeter rails joinedby corner clips, divider rails that extend intermediate to perimeterrails to form storage areas of various shapes and sizes, divider andperimeter clips that ensures the perimeter rail members remain confinedto the divider rails against any displacement.

U.S. Pat. No. 5,242,223 to Koves describes about a divider system thatcomprises divider panels and mounting supports that are used for formingdifferent partitioning inside a box. In use, the divider panels are heldin place by the mounting supports which can be secured to the drawerbottom, drawer sides or another divider panel to retain the dividerpanels in the selected position. Further, the divider panels are notchedfor breakoff to the desired length.

Although various dividers for drawers are proposed in the past, they areimpractical in terms of their manufacturing cost and time, rapid removalof the contents out of the drawer, and building boxes adherable oncounter tops or similar flat surfaces. Further, lots of dividers fordrawers are often telescopic in nature and rely on support from thelateral walls of the drawers where they are installed. Further, some ofthe dividers use interlocking slots provided on their body to connectwith other divider when such divides are installed into the interior ofthe drawers.

Thus, there is a room for an improved divider for partitioning theinterior space of a drawer to separate the contents stored therein, andfor facilitating building of custom boxes that can hold various items orcontents and are adherable on the counter tops or similar flat surfaces.

BRIEF SUMMARY

It is an objective of the present invention to provide a drawer dividerthat can be used for partitioning the interior space of a drawer to formstorage compartments/sections of different sizes for the contentspresent in the drawer.

It is another objective of the present invention to provide a drawerdivider that can be used for building custom boxes of different sizeswith or without their interior space partitioned for holding thecontents.

It is yet another objective of the present invention to provide a drawerdivider that's adherable on counter tops or similar flat surfaces suchas bottom of the drawers.

Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide a dividermade of a solid plastic sheet that can easily be packaged, stored, andshipped while minimizing store shelf space. Further, since the presentinvention uses a flat, thin sheet of plastic of preferably 0.1″thickness. These flat sheets of plastic can be easily stacked and storedon top of each other. For example, a package of size 12″×4″×1″ wouldcontain 10 dividers (with each sheet of plastic being 12″×4″×0.10″ indimension.

According to the embodiments of the present invention, there is provideda substantially rectangular and solid plastic sheet. The sheet isconfigured to get transformed into a divider that can be used forpartitioning the interior space of a drawer to form storage areas ofdifferent sizes for the contents present in the drawer or be used forbuilding custom boxes of different sizes for holding the contents.

According to the embodiments, the divider so formed using the sheetincludes a pair of central panels, and a pair of lateral panels, acentral hinge for connecting the pair of central panels, and a pair oflateral hinges, each used to connect the lateral panels to the centralpanels. In the preferred embodiments, the central hinge and the pair oflateral hinges may be configured as living hinges using the samematerial as that of the sheet. In some other embodiments, the centralhinge and the pair of lateral hinges may be made configured as externalhinges using materials such as but not limited to plastic, rubber, orother like flexible material or any combinations thereof that can bendand replicate a hinge movement.

According to the preferred embodiments, the central hinge is configuredto allow the pair of central panels to rotate 180 degrees, whereas thelateral hinges are configured to allow the lateral panels to rotate 90degrees. The lateral hinges may further embody ridges to ensurerotational motion of the lateral panels are restricted to 90 degrees.

According to the preferred embodiments, each of the central panels mayselectively embody an adhesive layer at underside of the central panels.The adhesive layer configured underside of the central panels mayinclude simple adhesives, differential adhesives, double sided tape ordifferential adhesive double sided tape. The differential adhesives suchas double sided tape may be preferred as differential adhesives provideadded strength to the pair of central panels to attach to each other andbe separated if needed when forming a divider wall.

According to the preferred embodiments, each of the lateral panels mayselectively embody an adhesive layer at underside of the lateral panels.The adhesive layer configured underside of the central panels mayinclude simple adhesives, differential adhesives, double sided tape ordifferential adhesive double sided tape. The differential adhesives suchas double sided tape may be preferred as differential adhesives providereversible strength to the pair of lateral panels to attach on amounting surface (such as a counter top or a drawer's base) when forminga divider base. A divider may be positioned, lifted and repositioned asrequired while maintaining base adhesion.

According to the preferred embodiments, the length of the lateral panelsof the divider may be made shorter or equal in length relative to thelength of the central panels. According to the embodiments, multipledividers may be used and arranged strategically to form custom boxes. Inthe embodiment, where the length of the lateral panels of the dividersare made shorter in length relative to the length of the central panels,the divider base of each divider would allow the dividers to connect toeach other properly or come together leaving no spaces. The shorteningof the lateral panels allow the divider walls of the dividers to toucheach other, if desired while forming the custom boxes.

Various objects, features, aspects and advantages of the presentinvention will become more apparent from the following detaileddescription of the embodiments of the invention, along with theaccompanying drawings in which like numerals represent like components.

The various features and embodiments of a divider adapted forpartitioning an interior space of a drawer, and building custom boxesadherable on counter tops or similar flat surfaces will now be describedin conjunction with the accompanying figures, namely FIGS. 1-10.

Referring to FIG. 1, different views of a divider made of a solidplastic sheet is shown, according to a preferred embodiment of thepresent invention. Particularly, view 2 of FIG. 1 shows a top inflatedview of the divider made of a substantially rectangular solid plasticsheet preferably made of polypropylene, view 4 of FIG. 1 shows an endview of the divider shown in the view 2, view 7 of FIG. 1 shows anenlargement of a portion of the divider shown in the view 4, and view 6of FIG. 1 shows how the solid plastic sheet 2 is configured in the formof the divider for partitioning an interior space of a drawer, orbuilding a custom box.

As seen, the divider 6 is formed by strategically folding the solidplastic sheet 2. The divider 2 includes a first central panel 16 with afirst end and a second end, and a second central panel 12 with a thirdend and a fourth end. The first and second central panels 16, 12 arehingedly connected to one another at their first end and the third end,respectively using a central hinge 14. According to preferredembodiment, the central panels 12, 16 are equal in length and width andare substantially rectangular in shape.

The divider 6 further includes a first lateral panel 20 with a fifth endand a six end, and a second lateral panel 8 with a seventh end and aneighth end. The first lateral panel 20 and the first central panel 16are hingedly connected to one another at their fifth end and the secondend, respectively using a first lateral hinge 18. The second lateralpanel 8 and the second central panel 12 are hingedly connected to oneanother at their seventh end and the fourth end, respectively using asecond lateral hinge 10. According to the preferred embodiment, thelateral panels 20, 8 are equal in length and width. Further, the lengthof each of the lateral panels 20, 8 may be made equal or shorterrelative to the length of the central panels 16, 12. Further, thelateral panels 20, 8, are substantially rectangular in shape.

Further, as seen, the divider 6 comprises a first adhesive layer 21configured underside of either the first central panel 16, or the secondcentral panel 12. In the view 4 of FIG. 1, the first adhesive layer 21is shown applied underside the second central panel 12 only. However, insome other embodiment, the first adhesive layer 21 may be configuredunderside of both the first central panel 16, and the second centralpanel 12. The purpose of the first adhesive layer 21 applied orconfigured underside of the first central panel 16, or the secondcentral panel 12 is to reversibly bind these two panels 16,12 togetherto form a divider wall when a user folds the solid plastic sheet 2 toform the divider 6. Additionally, the divider 6 further comprises asecond adhesive layer 21 configured underside of the first and secondlateral panels 20, 8. The purpose of the second adhesive layer 21applied or configured underside of the lateral panels 20, 8 is tofacilitate the lateral panels 20, 8 to adhere or attach to a mountingsurface where divider is installed. The mounting surface for the purposeof this invention is preferably a base of a drawer where one or moredividers 6 of the present invention would be installed to createpartitions within the interior of the drawer in order to facilitate theuser to organize various contents kept therein. Further, the mountingsurface can be counter tops where the dividers 6 of the presentinventions can be used to form custom boxes. Although only two mountingsurfaces are discussed, it should be understood that the presentinvention can be mounted over any smooth surfaces either to createpartitions or to build custom boxes (boxes with or without internalpartitions).

According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, theadhesive layers 21 applied underside of either of the two central panels12, 16 or underside of the lateral panels 8, 20 may be like in nature ormay be different. The adhesive layers 21 used for the purpose of thisinvention may be simple adhesives known in the art, or may bedifferential adhesives, double sided tape or differential adhesivedouble sided tape. Differential adhesives or differential adhesivedouble sided tape is preferred as these adhesives offer reversibleadhesive strength resulting in ease of reversible adherence of the twocentral panels 12, 16 (back to back adherence) and adherence of thelateral panels 8,20 over the mounting surface. Further, the adhesivesused may be reversible or irreversible in nature depending on theintended use of a box build using the dividers 6.

According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, thecentral hinge 14 connecting the central panels 12, 16 together is aliving hinge (made of the same material as the divider 6, polypropylenein the preferred embodiment) that allows 180 degrees rotation to thecentral panels 12, 16 and enable them to reversably connect together attheir undersides using the adhesive layer 21 to form the divider wall.Although, presence of a living hinge 14 between the central panels 12,16 is described, a complex or so to say a true living hinge as known inthe art is not required because during the lifetime of the divider 6,the number of times the central panels 12, 16 would be bent or foldedwould not be high. Thus, simply during the manufacturing process,decreasing the thickness of the plastic sheet to an appropriate level atthe point where the central panels 12, 16 would fold would serve thepurpose of this invention. In some embodiments, instead of using theliving hinge 14, one can use other material (such as plastic, rubber, orother flexible material) capable of replicating a hinge movement topractice the invention.

Further, the first lateral hinge 18 connecting the first lateral panel20 and the first central panel 16, and the second lateral hinge 10connecting the second lateral panel 8 and the second central panel 12are made as living hinges (made of same material as the divider 6) thatallow 90 degrees rotation to the lateral panels 8, 20 to form thedivider base that support the divider wall. The divider base attaches oradheres to the mounting surface using the adhesive layers 21 discussedabove. Although, presence of the living hinges 10, 18 for connecting thelateral panels 8, 20 to respective central panels 12, 16 is described, acomplex or so to say a true living hinge as known in the art is notrequired because during the lifetime of the divider 6, the number oftimes the lateral panels 8, 20 would be bent or folded will not be high.Thus, simply during the manufacturing process, decreasing the thicknessof the sheet to an appropriate level at the point where the lateralpanels 8, 20 would fold would serve the purpose of this invention. Insome embodiments, instead of using the living hinges 10, 18, one can useother material (such as plastic, rubber, or other flexible material)capable of replicating a hinge movement to practice the invention.

Referring to the partial end view 7 and the divider 6 of FIG. 1, thedivider 6 further includes a first pair of ridges 22 configured on topand adjacent to the first lateral hinge 18, and a second pair of ridges22 configured on top and adjacent to the second lateral hinge 10. Morespecifically, as seen, one ridge of the first pair of ridges 22 lie ontop and adjacent to one end of the lateral hinge 18 and the fifth end ofthe first lateral panel 20, and another ridge of the first pair ofridges 22 lie on top and adjacent to other end of the lateral hinge 18and the second end of the first central panel 16. Likewise, one ridge ofthe second pair of ridges 22 lie on top and adjacent to one end of thelateral hinge 10 and the seventh end of the second lateral panel 8, andanother ridge of the second pair of ridges 22 lie on top and adjacent toother end of the lateral hinge 10 and the fourth end of the secondcentral panel 12. The provided two pairs of ridges 22 restrict rotationof the lateral panels 8, 20 to 90 degrees. The ridges 22 may beconfigured into various shapes for example but not limited totriangular, rectangular or other polygonal shapes where flat surfacescan come together to strike each other.

Referring to FIG. 2, a cross sectional view of the divider 6 of FIG. 1is shown, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.The divider 6 as shown in FIG. 2 is obtained from the flat plastic sheet2 of FIG. 1. In operation, firstly a user rotatably folds the twocentral panels 16, 12 about the central hinge 14 that connects themtogether to form a divider wall. Specifically, when the central panels16, 12 are folded in the process for forming the divider 6, the twocentral panels 16, 12 reversably adhere to each other due to thepresence of the adhesive layer 21 to form the divider wall. Next, theuser folds each of the lateral panels 20, 8 to form a divider base thatwould support the divider wall. Each of the two pairs of ridges 22present adjacent to the hinges 10,18 come to lie at the dividerwall—divider base junction (striking each other) when the lateral panels8,20 are rotated restricting the rotation of the lateral panels 8, 20 to90 degrees. The ridges 22 further provide stability to the divider wallto remain erect, when the wall is fully formed. Once appropriatelyfolded, the adhesive layers 21 present underside of the lateral panelsallow the divider to stick or adhere onto the mounting surface (such asa drawer's base, a counter top). In an example, the adhesive layer 21 iscovered with a protective layer which is peeled off so that the user caneasily do during installation of the divider on the intended surface. Inthe preferred embodiment, adhesive layers 21 are covered with a peelablesheet during storage so they do not adhere to unintended surfaces. Thepeelable sheet is not shown in the present figures.

Referring to FIG. 3, isometric views of the divider and formation ofseparation walls by strategic placement of multiple dividers, accordingto a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Particularly, view30 of FIG. 3 shows the divider 6 in a folded configuration with lengthof the lateral panels 8 and adhesive layer 20 shorter to the length ofthe central panels 12 and adhesive layer 16. View 6 shows theconfiguration for the divider 6, where the length of the lateral panels8 is made shorter relative to the length of the central panels 12. View40 (specifically side and top views) shows formation of separation wallsby strategic placement of multiple dividers 6. When the length of thelateral panels 8, 20 is made shorter relative to the length of thecentral panels 12, 16 and the panels are folded about respective hinges(such as hinges 14, 18, 10) to form the divider 6 with the divider wall32 and the divider base 34, there remains spaces 25 underneath the wall32 at two ends of the wall 32.

In operation, as shown in the view 40, in order to form the separationwalls by strategic placement of multiple dividers 6, the divider base 34of one divider 6 can be slidably placed into the spaces 25 underneath ofthe other divider 6 allowing the divider wall 32 of one divider 6 tocontact or touch the divider wall of other divider 6. In the exampleshown, three dividers 6 are shown arranged, where one divider 6 isplaced horizontally and other two dividers 6 are vertically and slidablydisposed to lie within the spaces 25 present underneath the divider 6placed horizontally. This allows the divider wall 32 of all the threedividers 6 to be in contact or touch each other. Such configuration ofthe dividers 6 allow formation of a closed box leaving no spaces as insuch configuration the divider walls 32 of the dividers 6 physicallytouch each other. The dividers 6 can be placed at any position along awall length and are not limited to placement at any specific location.The separation walls/divider walls can be of different heights andlengths, depending on the sizes of the flat plastic sheet 2 or thedimensions of the central panels 12, 16.

Referring to FIGS. 4-5, formation of custom boxes using multipledividers are shown, according to a preferred embodiment of the presentinvention. Particularly, FIG. 4 shows formation of a box 45 using fourdividers 6 connected end to end in a square form. FIG. 5 shows formationof a box 50 using five dividers 6, wherein four dividers 6 are connectedend to end in a square form to form the box similar to the box 45, andthen an additional divider 50 is placed as a separator for partitioningthe interior space of the box 50. The boxes 45, 50 so formed areadherable on counter tops or similar flat surfaces because of theadhesive layers 21 present underside of the lateral panels 8, 20 asdiscussed above. Important thing to note, the boxes 45, 50 shown inFIGS. 4-5 are not configured to be fully closed (leaving the spaces 25unfilled present underneath each of the divider 6), and such boxes 45,50can be used for storage of the larger items. However, one shouldunderstand, custom closed boxes can also be formed specially for holdingsmall items by strategic placement of the dividers 6 as described abovein FIG. 3. The custom boxes can be build using different dividers withdifferent wall length and different wall heights. For example, the boxescan be made by combining dividers with 3″, 6″, 9″ and 12″ length walls.The dividers with lower height walls are used in situations wherevisibility is important. The dividers with taller walls are used forstorage of many small items.

Referring to FIG. 6, an example arrangement of dividers for partitioningan interior space of a drawer is shown, according to a preferredembodiment of the present invention. As seen, the drawer 60 comprises aleft side 65, a right side 63, a back side 62, a front side 64, and abottom 66 attached to the sides 62-65. The drawer 60 as seen resemblesan open-top box, and the dividers 6 of this invention can be used inwith respect to the drawer or open box-type structure. Specifically, thedividers 6 can be strategically placed adjacent to one another asexplained with respect to FIG. 3 to divide the bottom 66 of the drawer60 into different compartments or sections in order to facilitate theuser to properly organize different items or contents placed inside thedrawer 60. The contents may include arts and crafts items, electronicitems, stationery and office purpose items, and many other generalpurpose items.
